Gear Zilch Pocket Knife with 3.1" Plain Edge Blade, Folding Knife with Clip, Lightweight, EDC Gear and Equipment

Awesome knife, highly recommend. Blade profile is perfect for every day carry. Blade/handle is super lightweight. Price is great..definitely worth it! I got the green color, one of my new favorites.

Lost my Gerber Pocket Knife and got this to replace it because I've had a knife in my pocket since I was a child!! It's a Daily Tool and more!! I'm completely satisfied with this knife!! Fits my hand well, easy to open and lightweight. Great quality , size, blade length, and weight!! Highly recommend this knife 🔪

I bought this knife because of an article that stated that it was a good inexpensive knife to put in the glove compartment of my car. When the knife came, I looked at it and said no way was this a knife to just sit and hardly be used. It is light, the blade was very sharp, (although I made it sharper) and it opened easily one handed with either hand. This is a knife to be used a lot, and though it will not be my EDC, (I have another Gerber for that) it is going to be by my recliner where I can use it for cutting food, wrappers etc. while I am watching TV.

I’ve had this knife and used it at work everyday since buying it, mostly to cut boxes open. However I’ve thoroughly tested the blade and am quite impressed with its strength and the edge it has out of the box. Definitely a testament to my long held belief that Gerber is one of the better brands for reasonably priced edc gear. My one complaint is that with the way the pocket clip is faced if you’re someone like me who typically has this in a leg pocket on their pants (chef pants in my case but carpentry jeans also come to mind), the blade can open and lock open fairly easily. I’ve had this happen twice now and received some nasty pokes walking through the kitchen before realizing. Thank god I didn’t squat down for anything. All Id recommend is to either keep this in a front pocket of your pants or perhaps tighten the screw on which the blade swivels just a bit. I love the knife but would hate for someone to have it stab them.

Use knife daily at work, do you have to re-sharpen the blade every so often but takes a new edge very nicely

I'm a fan of Gerber multitools; I own the MP400, MP600BN, and an MP600 Bladeless. But so far as knives, the only one I've had before this one was the Paraframe Mini which my son got as a cub scout, but didn't yet really have the hand strength to work the lock. So I traded him for an Opinel No. 6 and took the knife for myself. With the Zilch, I had specific things I was looking for in a one-hand opening knife. I wanted it to be insanely light weight. At 2.15oz this fit the bill and in my pocket I don't even know it's there. I wanted a guard and this has that. I wanted an absolute ton of grip, even if my hands are wet. The Zilch doesn't look like it would be all that gippy, but it absolutely is. It just won't slip no matter what. I also wanted a fairly compact size. Most modern folding knives are either folding machetes (slight exaggeration) or they don't provide a solid grip. This one is small enough to be unassuming but still has the very tactical grip of the larger knives. The knife is a bit of an odd duck. Gerber has always been good at being innovating withy their tools (sometimes taking the risk to completely strike out on a product). That's what I needed: a knife that otherwise doesn't seem to exist from any other company. A compact, super light weight, super grippy, knife with a slim and slicy and very pointy blade. I also wanted it to be very cheap so if I lose it I won't cry about it. This is literally the only knife that meets all the criteria. My hands are large. 90% of XL gloves are too small for me. But I can easily manipulate this knife with no difficulty whatsoever. I've seen people complain that it's not for big hands. But I have NBA hands and it's great in my hands so I don't know what's wrong with these people. There was really no break-in time. It was smooth as butter right from the get go. It was also sharp as heck. Every knife I've ever bought, I've had to strop it to get it to what I consider SHARP. I didn't need to do anything to this knife. A few people mentioned the pocket clip bending. I've had no issues whatsoever. If I did, well, it's screwed on so just take it off and bend it back - it's not rocket science. The steel is 7CR17MOV. That's perfectly adequate for getting through an entire day, or week, of cutting up boxes or whatever you want to cut. I'm not a knife wimp who needs supersteel - I know how to sharpen a knife. 7CR keeps the price down. I paid $20 bucks. You can't beat that with a stick!

Lightweight and keeps an edge without breaking the bank. Good value for an EDC knife

Razor sharp, and would’ve given it 5 stars, but the tip bent after getting dropped less than 6 inches after slipping out of my hand.

Muy poco peso, parece buena calidad.
